Exodus 31- Bezaleel and Oholiab the Craftsmen


1 And the I AM spoke to Moses, saying,

2 "See, I have called Bezaleel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, by name and 

God gave certain men special gifts so they could do what He wanted them to do. God does not call the qualified. He qualifies the called.

3 "And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

4 "To create beautiful things, to work in gold, silver, and brass, 

5 "And in cutting stones, to set them, carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship. 

6 "And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. And in the hearts of all that are wise-hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee.

7 "The Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the Ark of the Testimony, and the Mercy Seat that is on it, and all the furniture of the Tabernacle, 

8 "And the table and its dishes, and the pure candlestick with all its tools, and the altar of incense, 

9 "And the altar of burnt offering with all its tools, and the washbasin and its pedestal, 

10 "And the clothes of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments for his sons, to minister in the priest's office, 

11 "And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place, according to all that I have commanded you shall they do."
